A Saint Seiya otaku went to Tamashii Nation 2018

Free admission to Bellesalle Akihabara

As soon as you enter, you'll see a few large, eye-catching items like "Dragon Ball," "Keroro," and "Gundam."
But I said,聖闘士Seiya" I'm heading straight to the exhibition hall!!

Photos from the Saint Seiya booth
The booth was based on the Sanctuary Zodiac fire clock.

Fire Clock
The fire on this clock goes out as time passes.
After the lights go out, they light up again... and this cycle continues.


Here's what's inside the showcase on the left! Seiya stands majestically in the center, with the three Olympian gods enshrined behind him.

And in the showcase on the right is Eclair Shoko, the main character of the anime "Saintia Sho" scheduled to air in December!!

Photo of the "Leo Aiolia" figure
Like the Gold Saints Milo and Aiolia, the light reflects off them and they sparkle really brightly.It's hard to take pictures...how divine.

Oops, there's an interesting sign!
Eclair Shoko is making an appearance!?
I wonder if there are any big dolls like "Keroro Robo"?

I decided to wait a little while.

When the time came, Shoko-chan came out wearing her Pony Cloth. She looked directly at the camera, so I snapped a photo.


Shoko-chan poses in all sorts of directions and even waves her hand.

The boy was so moved that he ran over to me, but I gently shook his hand.

Time passed and Shoko left. I'm glad I waited.
Next, let'sAkihabara UDXへ!

It's cool as soon as you enterLight-up performance!

Images of Kirie and Chika
As I passed through the entrance corridor, I was lucky enough to come across a scene where a character appeared.
Kirie and Chika from "The Magnificent Kotobuki" are posing next to a 1/1 scale Hayabusa Type 1 head model.

Kirie-chan looking at the camera
Kirie looked directly at the camera, so I snapped a picture. Thank you!!

And then we went to see the showcase exhibits, and at this venue,Photography is prohibited in most places.Because I can't show you the imageReport in writing as best you canI will.

Now"Saint Seiya: Legend of the Cloth"I headed to the display case. The first thing I saw were the Surplices of "Shion," "Death Mask," and "Aphrodite." Behind them was a "Set of 3 Mysterious Surplices," all wearing robes.

ShionThe pose is a famous quote from Hades, the Emperor of the Underworld, in the Zodiac"Don't panic, kids!!"It perfectly recreated the scene. That's right. Surplice Shion was released in 2007, Surplice Death Mask in 2015, so I was wondering when Surplice Aphrodite would be released.I was in agony, but I didn't panic.This year'sIt was announced in August.

In the same showcase, a new version of "Aquarius Hyoga" was on display this month. This was also displayed alongside "Sagittarius Seiya" and "Poseidon the Sea Emperor." It recreated the scene where Seiya shot an arrow to defeat Poseidon, soPoseidon had an arrow lodged in his forehead.I couldn't help but laugh at that.

And of course, the new anime"Saintia Sho"There was also an exhibit of "Eclair Shoko"! In the center of the solemn line of 12 Gold Saints was Eclair Shoko! A prototype of an original character for Saintia Sho was also on display. A trailer for the anime was also being broadcast on the monitor above the case.

After enjoying the exhibit to your heart's content, we were about to head home when we came across a row of merchandise commemorating the event near the exit.
From the Saint Seiya Cloth Myth series,"Gemini Saga & Canon"but! !

Ahh, this, this is what I want!!

I wasn't able to pre-order before the event, so I will be entering the lottery sale.
Please, please, I hope I win!!
